Hellalive
[Album; Live]

11 March 2003

'Hellalive' is the first live album by Machine Head. The album was released to fulfill Machine Head's commitment to Roadrunner Records. Former Vio-lence guitarist Phil Demmel is present on two songs, in place of Ahrue Luster, due to these songs being taken from 2002's Full Force Festival and by that time Luster had left the band. Demmel filled in, as is credited in the liner notes, and he later joined the band as permanent lead guitarist. As of 2012 the album has sold over 38,000 copies in the United States and an estimated 78,000 copies worldwide since its 2003 release.
